#status/in_progress rel:: [[dd/profiling]] [[Profiling]] [[Data Visualization]] ## What would an accessible flame graph sound or look like? ### Listened to [HEY, Is This App Accessible](https://rework.fm/hey-is-this-app-accessible/) There is prior art for making search and navigation [[UX]] accessible, but it made me start thinking what it would take to make profiles accessible. I have some very half-baked thoughts here including mapping frame scalars to amplitude or frequency, but frame graphs are heavily visual things.  We’d likely need a completely different audible representation for [[pprof]] and [[Java Flight Recorder]] files. Of course, accessibility is a spectrum.  Just giving a color-blind friendly pallet option would be better low-hanging fruit and benefit more people immediately.
